thats all i can say to it. get rid of this shit already. no one ive seen in those past 3 years said anything positive about them.

there is no reason at all, we dont get the rank for the mmr were playing at. this is THE absolute worst ladder system out of any competitive game ive seen so far.

why the hell do you have to hard carry 3 games against people with up to 500 lp above your own just so you can get into the next division?

and its not like those games count towards your rank. if you win your first 3 promo games, you dont get put at 70 lp into the next division. you get put at fucking 0. but if you lose 2/3 you get thrown back to 75 lp.

this shit is the most toxic and tilting garbage you came up with after dynamic que and auto fill.

?? are u on crack or some shit? if ur playing with ppl 500lp above you either: A: ur smurfing, shouldnt have a problem B: ur talking about the p5/d5 0 lp players who are literaly dogshit have same mmr as gold 5s/plat 5s, so its fine

He's referring to the fact your team is lower MMR than the enemy's MMR. Riot stated this would be an indication to test and see if you are worthy of advancing/climbing. It's really quite stupid.

And when you happen to be playing against someone who's 500LP lower than you and they're in promos. They get like a smurf on their team...

There wont be a literal 500lp difference in any elo besides d1+, you only see that when challengers and d1 players get matched because they were in 25min queues

I am sure there won't be a 500LP difference, but when you solo/duo ranked. You can duo with someone one tier higher/lower. In the cases of someone boosting someone and or someone playing with someone whose MMR is lower, say, Silver V 1090-1149 and his partner is Gold 1 1660-1719, you can actually have higher MMR difference.

So in theory, it's possible and ruins the game for those in between.

That's the same problem being complained about in reverse friendo. If you're playing at G/P mmr you should be in G/P league.

yes, riot should make it easier to demote from a 5th division so that maybe d5 wont be a literal shithole

Gosh, it's almost like when you qualify for a rank you should be at that rank instead of having to prove it an additional 1-2-3-4-5 times.

Players invariably afk and tilt more in promo games, I'm sure of it.
